This slow cooker pulled pork is an EASY dump-and-go recipe that will soon be a family favorite!

Pulled pork is SO simple to make in the slow cooker.

While we love us some smoked pulled pork over here, some days we just don't have the time (or patience) for that. This recipe makes it even easier because we've turned it into a freezer meal!

What cut of meat should you use for pulled pork?

For a traditional pulled pork recipe (like the ones you might find in a bbq restaurant) they will use a Boston butt. But for this recipe, we've lightened things up a bit and are using a pork loin. This is a lean piece of pork and works out so great in the slow cooker.

Smash all the ingredients around to cover the meat. Then zip the freezer bag being sure to let out all the air.

Label and freeze!

Easy…

Peasy…

Or, you can dump all that right into your slow cooker; cover and cook on low 6-8 hours and have dinner done!

You might be wondering what the typical serving size of pulled pork is per person?

You can get about 3-4 servings (if you have normal eaters) per pound of pulled pork, so a 2 pound pork loin should feed 6-8.

Since we are using this recipe in tacos you might be able to squeeze out a few more servings! 🙂

What should I serve with pulled pork? We've got you covered!

🌮 We like to serve these as tacos, but this pulled pork can definitely stand all by itself if you want to serve it as a main dish meat entree.

I love to serve some black beans mixed with salsa as a side dish alongside this salsa verde pork. Also corn on the cob is a great side dish as well. If you're feeling really adventurous, this Mexican Street Corn is the bomb and would pair so well with this recipe! Ok, now my mouth is watering.

How do I reheat leftover pulled pork?

You can microwave leftovers in 30 second intervals until warmed. Or, throw it in a skillet and heat it up that way as well. The salsa verde should help keep the pork very moist even when reheating.

Wondering if you can freeze any leftover pulled pork?

Absolutely! Put any leftovers in a zip-top freezer bag, squeeze out the air and smash around so it will lay flat. Label and freeze for another use. This should stay fresh in your freezer up to 6 months.
